• Does the school have an emergency preparedness plan?

  The emergency preparedness program is reviewed annually. Students practice fire, earthquake and lockdown drills several times a year.

  The Board of Trustees evaluates tuition yearly. In the past, tuition has risen an average of 4% to 6% per year.

• Is it permissible for children to take vacations during the school year other than at times allocated in the school calendar?

  Pegasus is a rich academic environment that merits a student's strong commitment to learning every day. Children who leave for extended periods of time are unable to glean the full benefit of their education. We strongly encourage parents to have children attend school daily and on time, planning their family vacations during the school holidays.

  Secondary schools and colleges seek out our students. Graduates matriculate to private schools, public schools, and boarding schools. Click here to view the Pegasus Matriculation List on the At a Glance web page.
